Years later I had a job where I was in the field most of the time, and I eventually grew to loathe it. Now as a petroleum geologist I am at a desk most of the time, and I miss the field. :) <BR/><BR/>I second Brian, this is a great blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563205518828267408.post-91730731941652925222007-06-15T12:59:00.000-07:002007-06-15T12:59:00.000-07:00field work has a great way of simplifying life...e...field work has a great way of simplifying life...eat, sleep, map, collect...oh, i guess you have to think a bit too, but all-in-all I always feel mentally refreshed after a stint of fieldwork<BR/><BR/>nice blog, by the way...a good structural geology-focused blogger is neededBrianRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930245080333999989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563205518828267408.post-10911225420331986532007-06-15T08:07:00.000-07:002007-06-15T08:07:00.000-07:00Welcome to the blogozone!
